Synopsis
You can report directory or file artifacts in one or more filesystem paths. Artifacts names and the paths to include and exclude when fingerprinting them can be defined in a paths file which can be provided using
--paths-file.
Paths files can be in YAML, JSON or TOML formats.
They specify a list of artifacts to fingerprint. For each artifact, the file specifies a base path to look for the artifact in
and (optionally) a list of paths to exclude. Excluded paths are relative to the artifact path(s) and can be literal paths or
glob patterns.The supported glob pattern syntax is documented here: https://pkg.go.dev/path/filepath#Match , plus the ability to use recursive globs ”**” To specify paths in a directory artifact that should always be excluded from the SHA256 calculation, you can add a
.kosli_ignore file to the root of the artifact.
Each line should specify a relative path or path glob to be ignored. You can include comments in this file, using #.
The .kosli_ignore will be treated as part of the artifact like any other file, unless it is explicitly ignored itself.
This is an example YAML paths spec file:
Flags
| Flag | Description |
|---|---|
-D, --dry-run | [optional] Run in dry-run mode. When enabled, no data is sent to Kosli and the CLI exits with 0 exit code regardless of any errors. |
-h, --help | help for paths |
--paths-file string | The path to a paths file in YAML/JSON/TOML format. Cannot be used together with --path . |
--watch | [optional] Watch the filesystem for changes and report snapshots of artifacts running in specific filesystem paths to Kosli. |
Flags inherited from parent commands
| Flag | Description |
|---|---|
-a, --api-token string | The Kosli API token. |
-c, --config-file string | [optional] The Kosli config file path. (default “kosli”) |
--debug | [optional] Print debug logs to stdout. |
-H, --host string | [defaulted] The Kosli endpoint. (default “https://app.kosli.com”) |
--http-proxy string | [optional] The HTTP proxy URL including protocol and port number. e.g. http://proxy-server-ip:proxy-port |
-r, --max-api-retries int | [defaulted] How many times should API calls be retried when the API host is not reachable. (default 3) |
--org string | The Kosli organization. |
-q, --quiet | [optional] Suppress non-critical warning messages. Errors and normal output are not affected. If both --quiet and --debug are set, --debug wins. |
Examples Use Cases
These examples all assume that the flags--api-token, --org, --host, (and --flow, --trail when required), are set/provided.
